[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mathematically there can't be of any race at 1400.  
According to Harvard's most recent CDS the 25th% percentile SAT is 1510 (the 75th is 1580). If there were "quite a few" at 1400 the 25% percentile would be far lower.    Of course that is CDS data set is from a TO cycle with 54% submitting SAT scores and 19% submitting ACT.   
Harvard's 25% percentile SAT for 2019/20 when tests were required was 1460 and the 75% was 1570 [/quote]
Mathematically, the bottom quartile scores may be distributed in such a way that there are absolutely several very low scores.

Also keep in mind that the 24-25 CDS has 54% reporting SAT scores and 19% reporting ACT scores. The true bottom quartile didn't report scores at all.

The 24-25 CDS also does not provide a composite SAT middle 50 percentile range. One cannot compute a composite 25th percentile by adding 25th percentile section scores. A 25th percentile composite is probably close to the sum, but we don't know exactly what it is.[/quote]
